Are you trying to boot from a usb cdrom? Maybe try giving us more info on your hardware setup.
i see i cant write it all in the topic, nevermind i'll wirte the message again -
"accessing knoppix cdrom at /dev/scd0" and than the cdrom stops responding and everything freezes.
what's that all about?
thanks from advance for your help.

oh, sorry
well -
intel 1.7 ghz
40 gigs hard drive
nvidia geforce 2 mmx 64mb
an internal X52 cd rom by MSI
a cd burner by LG
256mb ram
and i'm running it from my cdrom which works perfectly fine with other cd's
I've gotten this same problem with different hardware. Tried version 3.3 on:
white box, Athalon 1Ghz, Biostar, CDROM on hdc
Dell Optiplex GX240
IBM Thinkpad A21m (internal CDROM)
Tried disabling DMA, noscsi, and failsafe -- all produced the same error. Kernel starts but it seems to freeze trying to access the cloop file.
Also noticed cap lock and scroll lock lights blinking on the think pad (I thought they were on solid on the Dell and white box, but could be wrong.)
Thanks!
